Bible Question: Gen 1:1 - 2: 4 gives the story of creation, which man and woman was created on the 6th day. Then, I read Genesis 2:5 - 2:25 tells the story of Adam. So who are the people (man and woman) mentioned in Genesis 1:27? Are they different from Adam and Eve that mentioned in 2:7 (adam)/2:22 (eve)? |
Bible Answer: Msbyrdn- ::: Genesis 2 is merely a more detailed narration of some of the events introduced in Genesis 1. There has never been any credible account, biblical or otherwise, of God's creation of any human beings besides Adam and Eve. Thus, the male and female of Genesis 1:27 are the Adam and Eve of Chapter 2.The human race shares a common ancestry with Adam and Eve, who alone are the fruits of God's seminal creation. All their descendants are, by God's design, the fruits of procreation. The theory that there was a pre-Adamic race or that there was a time gap between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2 is not supported by Scripture and is therefore speculative bunkum. --Hank |
